    Abstract:
    The Partial Denitrification-Anammox (PD/A) process established a low-consumption, efficient and sustainable pathway for complete nitrogen removal, which is of great interest to the industry. Rapid initiation and stable operation of the PD/A systems were the main issues limiting its engineering application in wastewater nitrogen removal. A PD/A system was initiated in a continuous stirred-tank reactors (CSTRs) in the presence of low concentration of organic matter, and the effects of organic matter types and COD/NO3--N ratios on the performance of the PD/A system, and microbial community characteristics were explored. The results showed that low concentrations of organic matter could promote the rapid initiation of the Anammox process and then the strategy of gradually replacing NO2--N with NO3--N could successfully initiate the PD/A system at 70 days. The type of organic matter had a significant effect on the initiation of the Anammox and the establishment of the PD/A system. Compared to glucose, sodium acetate was more favorable for rapid start-up and the synergy among microorganisms, and organic matter was lower, with an optimal COD/NO3--N ratio of 3.0. Microorganisms differed in their sensitivity to environmental factors. The relative abundance of Planctomycetota and Proteobacteria in R2 was 51 %, with the presence of three typical anammox bacteria, Candidatus_Brocadia, Candidatus_Kuenenia, and Candidatus_Jettenia in the system. This study provides a new strategy for the rapid initiation and stable operation of the PD/A process.
